Chapter 1338 Gilbert and Marigold (13)

Soon, Marigold emerged from the fitting room wearing a red cocktail dress. Due to her

illness, her complexion hadn't been great. The vibrant color of the dress somehow brought

some color back to her skin, making her look less washed out.

'How does it look?" Marigold asked cautiously. She couldn't remember the last time she'd

worn such a glaringly red dress.

'It looks great. This is the one," n.ove.lx.o Jenny commented with an appreciative nod.

"But...isn't it too red?" Marigold wondered if wearing red might be too flashy for a baby's

naming ceremony.

Just as Jenny was about to speak, someone beat her to it. "How funny. One would think

you're a hooker in that striking red dress."

Hearing the voice, both Jenny and Marigold turned their heads. Jenny frowned as she

didn't recognize the person, but Marigold called out," Eleanor!"

Eleanor Wagner was the second daughter of the Wagner family. If it weren't for Marigold,

she would have been the most prominent daughter of the Wagner family. Hence, she had

always targeted her since their childhood. However, Marigold had never been afraid of her

because she had Paul backing her up.

Eleanor was eager to step all over Marigold as she'd heard of the latter's voluntary

disassociation from the Wagners. On top of that, Marigold hadn't returned to the Wagner

residence for an extended period of time. So, she didn't pose much of a threat to Eleanor

at the moment.

"Aren't you shameless? Giving birth out of wedlock is one thing, novëlx.o but moving into

that man's house without any status or name is unacceptable! You're embarrassing not

only yourself but also our family!' After a slight pause, she added, "It's no wonder Father

didn't like you. You're truly disgusting." Eleanor crossed her arms, proudly raising her chin

as if speaking to someone inferior.

Marigold wasn’t one to back down. Although she didn't want trouble, it didn't mean she

was a pushover. Staring at Eleanor for a moment, novëlx.o she sneered, "He did like you,

but it's a pity he didn't take you away with him."

’ Marigold!" Eleanor was furious and raised her hand, intending to strike.

Jenny, who had been observing the situation from the side, couldn't just stand by. She

stood up in a flash and grabbed Eleanor's wrist. "How dare you raise your hand against my

sister-in-law?"

With just one sentence, not only was Eleanor stunned into silence, but it also left Marigold

frozen in place. She could care less about Eleanor stirring up trouble for her at the

moment. Instead, she couldn't help but focus novëlxo on Jenny's choice of words.

"Your sister-in-law?"

Was that Jenny's own idea, or was it something Gilbert had said?

’Has your brother married her? They aren't even a couple for all I care!" Eleanor didn't

dare to lay a hand on Jenny, but she wasn't willing to give up either.

"So what if they're not married? She's one of us now. Do you think the likes of you can lay

a hand on her?" Jenny didn't know who Eleanor was, but from this brief encounter, she

disliked the woman very much.

Under these circumstances, she would naturally .xo stand up for Marigold.

Even so, Eleanor was unwilling to accept defeat. ’Miss Walter, my brother and your

husband have been good friends for many years. Shouldn't you be on the Wagners' side?"

’So?" Jenny raised an eyebrow scornfully, finding her words somewhat ridiculous.

"You shouldn't take her side," Eleanor stated.

Jenny couldn't help but laugh mockingly, looking at Eleanor as if she were looking at a

fool. "Paul and my husband are indeed good friends of many years, but so what? How can

you be so sure that Paul shares the same opinion as you? xo Tell me, does he know

you came here to humiliate Marigold?"

Jenny believed that Paul still regarded Marigold as his sister and probably wouldn't allow

anyone from the xo Wagner family to come and cause trouble for her.

Indeed, upon hearing those words, Eleanor's expression changed, and she instantly shut

up like a clam.
